Volke was forgotten because, he was only available for 1 chapter other than the endgame, and most people didn't bother because Sothe's automatic entry in RD.
Uh... You got Volke halfway through FE: PoR.

Are you forgetting about that game?

Somehow it felt relevant...

Lin as a rep for Advance Wars also would be all kinds of amazing btw
Days of Ruin was awesome. Even though I never got to complete it.

Liked the much darker theme the game had.

And how come I forgot Soren? I ****ing love Soren!

Dude, I feel EXACTLY the same way about DoR, I never got to finish it, but I really liked it. I think I still have it somewhere, I gotta give it another go sometime. Another options would be Sami from AW. Granted I've only played DoR so...

Also, Terry Crews for Smash4 anyone?

Were we talking favorite regular FE units?

Hm...there's just so many, and I love like 90% of them, it's so hard to choose....

But I think I'll go with:

FE7: Nino, Rebecca, Guy, Matthew, Farina

FE8: Joshua, Amelia, Ewan, L'archel

FE13: Nowi and Thajra :troll: Henry, Owain, Gerome, Yarne, Stahl, Anna

That sh*t don't bring nothin' to the table.


Edit: Just found this one:

I liked Yarne too... especially when he was My Unit's Son. Ignis + Vantage....

I was thinking that since the Fire Emblem characters in Smash Bros. are meant to represent the series as a whole, then it could be something like this:

Marth: Represents the NES/SNES era
Roy: Represents the GBA era
Ike: Represents the GCN/Wii era

Now, by this method, for the DS/3DS era, the Avatar (My Unit) appears to be the best representative.

And for the series as a whole, we have Anna.

Thoughts on this?

That's one interesting way of looking at things...

The Avatar and Anna are my supported characters for FE... maybe I should make an Avatar signature...

Question:

Think we'll see an FE character get revealed in the Trailer for Smash Sluggfest/Riot?

For some reason, I can picture Lucina getting revealed in the Trailer for the game.

So could I. In general, I except to see a few 'new faces' instead of too many popular choices.

Hmm, I think Palutena is gonna be shown, Lucina as well since FE13 just came out and it's wildly popular.

Outside of that I'm not too sure. Perhaps Bayonetta at the end if they're going for another shock factor.

Fire Emblem characters are not exactly stuff that would build up hype no matter how you look at it, aside from attracting the niche Fire Emblem fanbase. It's mainly due to the broken base and the lack of pizzazz on both fronts; no matter what, we lose.

I could say King K. Rool or Ridley, but they're a one-shot villain, but I really mostly support the only a somewhat likely characters, even though I really want em.

Both in Japan and the West there is little interest for Lucina to be playable. Smash Bros. fans think she is way too similar to Marth to warrant being playable.

Also, considering you are also predicting Palutena and Bayonetta to be revealed as well, and since its very unlikely we will get more than five newcomers confirmed, I highly doubt they would load up an unveil trailer with three female newcomers. I think we will simply get ONE that fills the "female newcomer" spot.

There isn't exactly any rules that state we must have a certain newcomer to fill in a certain niche. Start believing in made up patterns, and you'll get completely thrown off.

I think Lucina (and any FE character) is very unlikely for the unveil trailer because Chrom and Lucina are very likely going to be clones of Marth/Ike. Secondly, demand is small for Lucina amongst Smash Bros. fans.

Yea, i don't need them in the reveal trailer, I expect it to be maybe like a month before the game comes out, for the FE rep.

To be fair, the only FE character that demand mattered for was Marth himself.

I just realized that the world is harsh place for gamers, and we gamers always fight among ourselves when we have a lot in common, so from now on I will vow that I will never attack any other gamer and will try my best to befriend them.

as long I got that out of the way. Let's get on topic!

let me begin, let's talk about Fire Emblem:

IF you had the chance to make your Fire Emblem dream team for one map, you can only choose 15 units and you need to fill these classes slots:

Lords (Maximum 3)

Hero/Sword Master/Assassin/Trickster

Healers

Sage/Sorcerers

General/Horseback units

Flying units

You can have maximum of 15 units in the map.

I'll play. :)
The characters are largely from FE6, FE7 and FE8. They're the only ones I've played. So here goes.

Lords: Lyn, Hector, Roy

Sword Master: Guy
Trickster: Anna

Sage: Saleh, Nino, Canas

Healers: Saul, Moulder

General: Wallace

Horseback: Lance, Sain

Flying Units: Florina, Vanessa

There should have been a category for archers as well.
For archers: Remove Nino from Sages, add Wil to Archers

Ahh, well like Habanero said I wasn't looking at the fact that they were female characters. Just the fact that they were characters who could be shown in the trailer.

Lords: Ike, Lyn
Swordmasters/Assassins: Mia, Stephan, Jaffar
Healer: no healers, those are for *******
Sage: Soren
Generals/Paladins: **** 'em, Archers: Shinon
Flying Units: Caeda (girl is DEATH on wings), Haar, Tibarn, Elincia

That's all I really need, though we could add some of RD's broken endgame units as well. Though I forgot who most of them were...

All I really need is PoR Ike, but hey, that wouldn't be fun now would it?

If I replace Tibarn and Caineghis, so could I. Perhaps I could replace one for Nephenee. And the other, well I think a dragon will do. Or maybe Merric, cause Excalibur is simply awesome.

I highly doubt they would use a character that is very likely to end up as a clone of some kind for the unveil trailer. If they had to use one (and even this is extremely unlikely), it would probably be Roy due to how highly requested he is relative to other characters that have the possibility of ending up being a clone/semi-clone.

Sad, but true. Not sure an FE character would be good for a trailer, reactions would be probably a mix of "Who?" and "this isn't Roy" and such.

In that case, a FE veteran might be there. I suppose Ike would be the best option.

Fixed.

Marth really needs to be promoted to a starter character considering he had two new games released after Brawl.
Actually, I said Ike because Marth is (nearly) a shoo-in. Presence of Ike or Roy would be a better option.

Maybe keep Ike as starter, "promote" Marth from secret character to starter and have Roy return as a secret character?
